幽响流鲜风——师行坤花鸟风卮言

节制而又奔涌的才情——在徐霞客的文字和师行坤的画之间,我突然发现有这么个“公因式”可供提炼。古往今来地乱翻杂书、云端海底地放肆联想。早年爱读《徐霞客游记》,尤其是游黄山那部分——“独上天都,予至其前,则雾徙于后,予越其右,则雾出于左。其松犹有曲挺纵横者,柏虽大干如臂,无不平贴石上,如苔藓然。”——沉溺于某种如饮甘泉般的字词之美中,真要嗒然忘了尘身。

“军中之利器也,攻守师行皆用之” 抛石机:前火药时代的原始“火炮”

象棋似布阵,点子如点兵。中国象棋如同一场桌上战争,32子,红黑各半,将帅对奔,车马相士炮兵卒各尽其职,棋手运筹帷幄,决胜千里。不过这种中国人家喻户晓的游戏究竟起源于何时,一直存在争议,只能确定最早的象棋又称“象戏”且与今天的子数不同,直到唐代初年,象棋都只有将、士、象、车、马、卒6种。

以职业道德自律为基础的高校师德评价双激励模式建构

职业道德自律,统摄高校教师基于对本职业的敬仰,自觉或不自觉将职业约束转变为个人习惯的价值观念、情感表达、意志行为等。近代以来,随着社会生活的变革,师德自律历经崇高师德、职业师德及应用评价师德的理论嬗变。随着高校自身建设发展以及高校教师自身需要的转变,高校教师职业道德自律在中国特色社会主义新时代面临新的课题和诉求。高校教师只有将其职业道德内化于心、外化于行,才能真正发挥和实现其知识创新、学问探索、立德树人和引领社会发展的核心价值。以高校教师职业道德自律为核心的“师心自律”与“师行自律”双激励模式的建构,正是奖惩型评价机制向发展型评价机制的变革,具有重要的社会规范功能和时代价值。

Auditor Reputation, Audit Opinion, and Eamings Management： Evidence From French Banking Industry

The aim of this research is to study the impact of auditor reputation and audit opinion on earnings management in French banks. This article used a sample of 162 French banks over the period from 2005 to 2012. By using three different tests （loss-avoidance, just-meeting-or-beating prior year＇s earnings, and abnormal loan loss provision）, the findings of this paper show that both high auditor reputation and qualified audit opinion constrain earnings management to avoid loss or to just meet or beat prior year＇s earnings in banks. In separate tests related to earnings management through abnormal loan loss provisions, the paper also finds that high auditor reputation constrains earnings management. Qualified audit opinion has a negative but non-significant effect on abnormal loan loss provisions.

Neural Networks and the Study of Time Series： An Application in Engineering Education

Time series are an important object of study in sciences, engineering and business, especially in cases where it is expected to know, predict and optimize behaviors. In this context, we intend to show the feasibility of using artificial neural networks in the study of several time series in an engineering course, especially those that have no overt behavior or are not able to be modeled mathematically in a simple way and have direct application in the education of future engineers.

A Single Man in a Complex Movie - or- Tom Ford Between Sketch Block and Screen

＂I love suits! One feels so save and kept together in it. Like in an armour!＂ （von Taube, 2008, p. 1）. This remark by designer Tom Ford in a newspaper article a couple of years ago finds expression in the behaviour of George Falconer （Colin Firth）---the main protagonist in Ford＇s directorial debut A Single Man （2010） which follows the outlines of the landmark 1964 novel of the same title by Christopher Isherwood. In this article the author want to ask questions concerning the different aesthetic potentials of the novel on the one hand and the movie on the other hand. How are the main topics of loss and solitude presented and which relevance has the beauty of the image in these two different staging acts？

Study on English teachers＇ bias towards students of different genders

More and more scholars and researchers at home and abroad have gradually realized that teachers, especially English teachers, hold different attitudes and carry out different behaviors towards students of different genders during the teaching. There are many factors affecting the teachers＇ prejudiced attitudes and behaviors, such as teachers＇ stereotype, differences between male and female students, gender role expectation, etc. Teachers＇ bias attitudes and behaviors affect students＇ studies and development.

Does an Auditor＇s Within-Industry Market Share Still Capture Auditor Industry Expertise in a Mandatory Audit Partner Rotation Regime？

Prior studies commonly use an auditor＇s market share in an industry as a proxy for auditor industry expertise and find that audit quality is positively related to an audit partner＇s within-industry market share in a voluntary audit partner rotation regime where the length of the client-partner relationship is not limited. Mandatory audit partner rotation, however, limits the length of the client-partner relationship and can artificially increase or decrease the market shares of incoming and departing partners, thus making the audit partner＇s within-industry market share an unreliable proxy for auditor industry expertise. Using a sample of banks in Taiwan, we find that audit quality is positively related to an audit partner＇s within-industry market share in the voluntary audit partner rotation regime. However, such a positive relation disappears in the mandatory audit partner rotation regime. Thus, we conclude that mandatory audit partner rotation decouples the link between an audit partner＇s within-industry market share and auditor industry expertise and caution researchers against using an audit partner＇s within-industry market share as a proxy for auditor industry expertise in a mandatory audit partner rotation regime.

Child Upbringing and Delinquency： Implication for Societal Development in Nigeria

This paper investigated the influence of parental child upbringing styles and juvenile delinquency and the implication for societal development. A total number of 35 female and male delinquent inmates of Children Correctional Centre in Cross River State and 35 female and male non-delinquents from a normal school aged from 12 years to 17 years took part in the study. The Child Rearing Questionnaire （CRQ） designed by the researcher was used for data collection. Two hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Chi-square was used in testing the study hypotheses at .05 level of significance. The result of the data analysis showed that parental child-rearing style has a significant influence on the three aspects of dishonest behaviour, namely lying, stealing, and truancy, and parents＇ bonding with their children is also significant. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that parents should adopt more of authoritative child upbringing styles. Parents are expected to guide and modify the behaviour of their children to conform with the acceptable behaviours in society as well as participate in activities aimed at preventing crime or disorder being committed by their children.

Igniting the Statistical Spark in the Social Sciences—Abilities, Student Feedback and Teacher Observations

A quasi-experimental design was used to measure file impacts on student attainment in statistics, mathematics and critical thinking （16-18 years of age） on an experimental group who received a 21 week long contextualised statistics course （called the Pilot Scheme in SA （social analytics））, in South Wales. This paper will discuss the changes in statistical abilities observed, student feedback from the course and also teacher observations, in relation to the Pilot Scheme in SA. Results suggest that the course did lead to increase in students＇ abilities, in comparison to two control groups. Whereas students in both control groups who did not receive the treatment, showed a decrease in their abilities with respect to mathematics and statistics. Student feedback suggests they could see the value of the course to their other studies and they also felt the statistics delivered was linked well with relevant examples. Results from an analysis of teacher observations support findings from the course evaluation of the Pilot Scheme in SA, which include an increase in student confidence with mathematics and statistics.

Facilitating the professional development of teachers is one of a most important way to improve the teachers＇ personalities. However, how to facilitate the professional development of the novice English teacher in the secondary school is still a big and headache problem in front of all education managers and all novice English teachers. For this reason, it has a huge practical significance to look for some ways to research the professional development of the novice English teachers in secondary school. The objective of this research is to promote the professional development of novice English teachers in secondary school through a wide range of ways.

Quality of Financial Statements and Tenure of Statement-Related Personnel

This study investigates the association between quality of financial statements and tenure of statement-related personnel. First, we examined whether there is still a significant association between financial statement quality and the tenure of audit partners who are responsible for the quality assurance of financial statements after the implementation of mandatory audit partner rotation. We addressed this issue by using a sample of Taiwan Residents companies, with which no significant association between audit partner tenure and the magnitude of discretionary accruals （DA）, a common proxy for financial statement quality, was found. Second, we investigated whether an association exists between the financial statement quality and the tenure of management who is responsible for the preparation of financial statements. We also addressed this issue by using Taiwan Residents data and found a significant association between management tenure （MT） and the magnitude of DA. Our findings provide evidence that audit partner tenure would neither improve nor deteriorate the quality assurance of a financial statement, when there is a mandatory audit partner rotation after a fixed period of time. Whereas how MT affects financial statement quality after the enactment of the mandatory audit partner rotation is dependent on the management position. Increasing tenure of chief executive officer （CEO） and chief financial officer （CFO） will enhance and hinder financial statement quality respectively. In the end, we found a significant interaction of tenure between auditor and CFO. This result implies that the downward bias of CFO on the financial statement preparation can be mitigated by auditors with increasing tenure.

Reading Skill Improvement Through Visual Memory, Question, Read, Recite, Record, and Review English Instructional Method （VMQ4R-EIM）

To improve students＇ reading skill through VMQ4R-EIM and to reflect the English instructional process implemented by the teacher in the secondary school, and finally the teacher can introspect his English instructional activities, there are 40 students as the research subjects of this CAR （classroom action research） and it used spriral method from Kemmis and McTaggart with four stages （plan, action, observation, reflection）. The research result showed that there was significant reading skill improvement to secondary school students. In the first cycle, the student＇s reading skill improved to 62% and the observation result reached to 65%. In the second cycle, the student reading skill improved to 97% and the observation result reached to 95%. The VMQ4R-EIM can improve secondary school students＇ reading skill. The research implication is the VMQ4R-EIM that is one way to be implemented by the English teacher in order to improve and make the students motivated and active in attending the instructional process

Effect of personality on fraud detection： The Malaysian case

Auditing standards require external auditors to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatements, either due to fraud or error. Inability of the external auditors to detect the material misstatements, particularly fraud, may expose them to litigation. The present study aims to examine the effect of personality factors （i.e., neuroticism, extraversion, conscientiousness, openness to experience and agreeableness） on the external auditors＇ ability to detect the likelihood of fraud. An experimental approach is adopted by sending case materials to audit partners and audit managers attached to auditing firms operating in Malaysia. The result shows that personality does not have a positive effect on the external auditors＇ ability to detect the likelihood of fraud.
